Transform Noise Into Beauty
On the 4th of April as my date to fly to the Netherlands nears I start the day a bit restless. I woke up well, thanking God for the new day and praying. After that I look at the time and calculate if it's possible to go for a surf. Waiting for response of a … Continue reading Transform Noise Into Beauty

[This story takes place in April 2021]If you look up the word home in the dictionary you will probably find the following meaning: “one’s place of residence; domicile; house.” But home also has a deeper emotional meaning.

Our Business Is With God
As I read The Blessed Life by Robert Morris in chapter 6, the Gratitude or Greed paragraph, I realize something. Robert Morris has been speaking about our heart, our part, our reaction to when God calls us to do something. But never the focus on how the receiving part reacts. Which is beautiful. Only in … Continue reading Our Business Is With God

Bergamo
Apparently it's becoming an annual tradition, as my mother and I went on another trip together for the third year in a row. Our wishes for the trip were cheap tickets, few days, a cheap stay and somewhere we both haven't been yet of course. And so the search concluded it would be Bergamo, Italy. … Continue reading Bergamo
[WID0065] Guest Post by Maartje: The Pearl
Heads up! This post has two versions: English & Nederlands. Over the past period, my husband and I have been experiencing several different emotions. Life, death, sorrow, joy. Everything was so intense. Sometimes you live in those periods when everything seems to come at the same time, not 'well' distributed, which causes our human heart … Continue reading [WID0065] Guest Post by Maartje: The Pearl
Don’t Dismiss The Teacher
Jesus Christ was preaching on the hillside to 5000 heads of households counted. Which means about 15.000 to 20.000 people. He was preaching the morning and continued and continued. Christ was talking, preaching, teaching. And everyone was learning and eagerly wanting to learn more. His twelve disciples, the ones close to Him, led by what … Continue reading Don’t Dismiss The Teacher
What You Sow Does Not Come To Life Unless It Dies
Just a short reflection on this part of the verse: 1 Corinthians 15:36 [HCSB] -- “What you sow does not come to life unless it dies.” 1 Corinthians 15:36 [CEV] -- "A seed must die before it can sprout from the ground." Paul was talking about the resurrection there. Also that we’re not planting our … Continue reading What You Sow Does Not Come To Life Unless It Dies
